Ok, I'm back! Got a monitor split set up going on. 1 monitor, 2 computers (a mac and a PC). First update is Death & Taxxis from Hasslefree Miniatures. Definatly NOT SAFE FOR WORK! I repeat::

NOT SAFE FOR WORK NSFW

Now I view this as art, as most of us I think, but there are those out there that can askew the difference and arguments abound, but I warned you, so here we go.

I bought this miniature years ago. When I first saw it, I knew I wanted to paint it, but I wanted it to look good so I waited. And I waited. Years later when cleaning out and rearranging my collection of unpainted, I came across this and decided it was time.

I did enjoy painting this one alot and I am glad I waited to paint it. I took my time with it as it was a personal piece and was very happy with the results. One more disclaimer and then the pics:

NOT SAFE FOR WORK!

Hope you enjoyed that one. I will have more updates later this week, hopefully Thursday I will upload some commissions Bog Trog Ambushers, Croak Hunters, and Swamp Gobbers Crew all from Privateer Press line Hordes.

So its been a while. My Mac (where I keep my pics of miniatures and stuff) monitor died and I dont really have room to hold 2 monitors anymore. So I must find a 1 monitor to 2 Computer convertor. Until then we have to settle for this update (sorry). I do have a lot of pics to show whenever I get that convertor, here is a list of things to look forward to:

Its alot, and hopefully I can space them out over a week or two - whenever I get that convertor.

Also I received another commission that is going to be interesting. It is from Games Workshop from their Warhammer line. It is an old miniature, full metal. The Chaos Champion Egrimm Van Horstmann! A dragon with two heads (and two tails!). I painted this one once before a long time ago when I began painting miniatures a little over 15 years ago! Its going to be interesting seeing the final piece. When I painted my first piece I thought it was good and I was proud of it. Seeing what I can do now, it is a bit amateurish but still good. When I do finish this commission I will post a "then" and "now" pics to show the difference.
